Earn.com, the "social token" platform, just announced the launch of their affiliate program, in a blog post published today. According to the news:
In advance of our upcoming token launch, we’re rolling out several features that have been widely requested for a while. Beginning today we are introducing invites with cryptocurrency bonuses. You can now earn up to $100 worth of BTC by inviting users to the Earn.com network!
What is Earn.com?
Formerly known as 21.co, Earn.com is a platform where you can get paid for reading and answering back to emails. It was launched as an "Amazon Mechanical Turks clone", where you could get paid for "solving" various tasks online, but it pivoted for a more specific use case, reading and answering messages.
The problem they want to solve is related to unsolicited emails and they even built a Gmail integration which works like this: users who know you and are already whitelisted can contact you directly. But any other person that is not whitelisted (for instance, advertiser emails, events, news) get a bounced email telling them to contact you through your profile at Earn.com, and pay you, if they want to be sure you actually read their message. The payment happens only if you answer back.
I've been on and off on the platform and I still use the link in my Gmail address signature. I got a few requests to read emails, most of them about upcoming ICOs, but that happened probably because of the way I set up my interests in my profile. Your mileage may vary.
Given the recent launches of other players in this area, like Datum, it was expected they'll speed up their user acquisition efforts.
If you want to join the program, you can sign up here, but please be aware of the limitations:
- you can get a maximum of $100, with $1 per each verified person
- the person must be verified with an institutional email in order for you to get paid
